Initially I thought this was just going to be a decent product that I thought would be a nice additive to our fixture-less living room (no ceiling lights). I also thought it would be a pain to assemble but I was pleasantly surprised. I put the 4 lamps together one-at-a-time while watching TV one evening and it was easy, in fact, very easy. They have a nice presence about them that adds class. The mini draws that come with it aren't so mini as I used them to store various items that I had difficulty storing such as pens, jewelry, desk top tools (such as paperclips, rolls of tape and scissors). I also found the shelves useful for plants and picture frames.

Pros: Great value and fun to assemble
Cons: Can tip over... just place a heavier item on the bottom shelf to secure tower. I love the look
